Building Security: Access Control
During the hours of 6:00 a.m. through 7:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, and Saturdays from 9:00 a.m. to
1:00 p.m., 800 North Glebe Road is open for general public access to tenants, visitors and the general
public. These hours refer to building access for the general public only. For the purpose of “access control,”
all other times are considered “after-hours.”
In order for an employee to access the building after-hours, the individual must be assigned an access fob,
which is provided at the time of move-in. Once activated, the fob will enable access into the building. In the
event an individual loses his/her fob, a replacement fob can be issued at the cost of $9.00/fob. An invoice
will be generated and a charge placed on the tenant’s account.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT LET ANY UNKNOWN INDIVIDUALS ENTER THE BUILDING WITH YOU.
Obviously, it is important that the Tenant Contact retrieve access cards from employees who leave their
office, and return them to or promptly notify the Management Office for deactivation of the card to prohibit
access into the building. For ease and efficiency, all tenant contacts will be assigned a Datawatch Link
log-in and password so that they may manage all of their employees access fobs.
Utility Closet Access
You must call the JBG Commercial Management office at 571-312-8171 in order to have the Building
Engineer access any Utility Closet for the purpose of a contracted vendor performing repairs or
maintenance for your suite.

Building Security: Deliveries
General
All deliveries for tenants must take place in the service freight elevator as it is equipped with protective
padding. Deliveries must be made using the loading dock on the lobby level and the freight elevator.
Tenants must sign for and accept all deliveries; they must also arrange for immediate transport of those
items to their suite.
All oversized/large deliveries (those requiring more than one hour or involving pieces with any dimension
greater than 5 feet) need to be scheduled at least 24-hours in advance with the Building Management, and
shall take place during non-business hours. All small deliveries can be arranged during non-peak times with
Building Management (see scheduled times below). Elevator scheduling is on a first-come, first-served
basis. A representative from your firm must be present to accept any delivery made after-hours.
All delivery companies must bring Masonite to protect lobby floors. Walls, corners, and doorframes must
also be treated with appropriate protection to avoid damage. The schedule for small weekday deliveries only
is as follows:
Monday –
Friday:
Before 8:00 a.m.
9:30 a.m. until 11:30 a.m.
1:30 p.m. until 4:30 p.m.
After 6:00 p.m.
Weekend deliveries may be made at times pre-scheduled with the Management Office.
After-Hours
Building staff will not accept or allow after-hours deliveries without prior arrangement and approval through
the Management Office. After-hours deliveries may not be scheduled before 6:00 p.m. Further, neither the
JBG Commercial Management, building engineering staff or security personnel can accept any type of mail
or packages (i.e., general mail, certified or registered mail, FedEx packages, UPS packages, etc.) from
couriers coming into or exiting tenant suites. Property insurance requirements prohibit this activity.
Incoming deliveries should be referred directly to the tenant’s premises.
Building Security: General Office Security
As our society seems to have grown more dangerous, so has the need for all of us to be more security
conscious - corporately and individually. It is important for tenants to recognize that 800 North Glebe Road
offers a level of security generally comparable to other first class office buildings in the Arlington, VA area.
This means that we seek to secure the building, while tenants retain the responsibility for their space and the
safety of their employees. Each individual needs to be security conscious, responsible and aware of his or
her belongings and office area.
Tenant Precautions
Building security needs your full cooperation in order to effectively secure your premises. We recommend
that your company implement these simple, but effective policies:
Do not leave your reception area unattended.
Keep valuables in secured areas (locked desks, file cabinets, etc.) when not attended and out of sight
when attended.
Keep safes locked when unattended, and don’t leave the combination information where it is likely to
be found.
Record serial numbers of all valuable office equipment.
Solicitation is not permitted within 800 N. Glebe Road. Report all unauthorized or suspicious persons
immediately to the Security Guard in the lobby or the JBG Commercial Management office at
571-312-8171. Provide a full description of the person(s) and the last area in which they were
observed, and if possible, the direction in which they were headed.
Require identification from repairmen who come to work in your office suite. Messengers must also be
prepared to show identification and delivery papers at all times.
Security experts have found that the receptionist position is the best line of defense against potential
perpetrators. The receptionist should be trained to be the best “security” employee in the company.
When an employee leaves your office space, his or her need for vigilance continues. Remind your
employees that whether leaving the building to go to a meeting, retrieving a car in the parking garage,
or walking about the public areas of the building, move with a purpose and be reasonably on guard.
This is particularly true during the dark hours.
Meanwhile, do what you can to heighten the level of security awareness, and remind everyone to
keep valuables locked and out of sight.
Equipment Removal
It may be necessary from time-to-time for someone from your office to remove property (i.e., boxes,
computers, typewriters, furniture, copier, etc) from the premises. Prior to this taking place, we ask that you
notify Building Management with the information listed below. Building Management or Security can stop
anyone leaving the building with equipment and request identification. If the party is unable to produce
proper or matching identification, they may not be permitted to remove the property from the building. This
procedure is for your protection. Information that is to be provided to Building Management includes:
Tenant’s name
Tenant’s phone number
Date materials are to be removed
List of all items and quantities to be removed (e.g., two boxes, one chair, one computer, etc)
Serial number of property, if applicable
Company or personal property
Name of individual(s) who will be removing property
Signature of tenant authorized party
Date authorization is given
Vendor/Contractor Access
There may be times when vendors or contractors need to perform work in your suite during non-business
hours. In such instances, please provide written notification to Building Management, including the name(s)
of the individual(s), the company, date and approximate time they will be arriving, the nature of the work to
be performed, and a Certificate of Insurance. Please note that all work and contractors must be
pre-approved by Building Management. This information is requested for informational purposes only. Under
no circumstances will Security and/or Building Personnel provide access to anyone into any tenant
premises. A tenant representative must be available to let vendors and contractors into their space.
Theft and Insurance
Theft and Insurance
Any suspected theft, no matter how small, should be reported to Building Management, after having called
the police to file a report. Police need to be informed of any thefts in the building to establish a pattern to the
thefts and to effectively complete an investigation. The insurance policy for 800 N. Glebe Road does not
cover the personal belongings of tenants. Personal property insurance is the responsibility of each tenant
and must be evidenced by an insurance certificate.
Incident Report
To provide an accurate record of every incident, Security Personnel are required to write an incident report
for any accident, theft, or other incident occurring on the property. We appreciate your cooperation in
answering any questions building staff may have.
Building Security: Key and Lock Policy
Special Keying
All keys for 800 North Glebe Road are keyed to a Building Master Key System. This key system is
necessary so that building staff has access to all areas in the event of any emergency. Additional keys may
be obtained through Building Management at a charge of $3/key.
Lock Outs
In the event a tenant forgets his or her key, or locks themselves out of their office, the JBG Commercial
Management Office should be notified by calling 571-312-8171. Access will only be granted once the
person who signed the lease or the assigned Tenant Contact person(s) has been reached and approval
given.
Building Security: Lost and Found
Please contact the Management Office at (571) 312-8171 to claim items that have been lost or found in the
building.
Building Security: Solicitation
In order to relieve tenants of the burden of uninvited soliciting on the premises, soliciting is prohibited at 800
North Glebe Road. If someone is soliciting on your floor or in your suite, please notify the Security Guard or
the JBG Commercial Management Office at 571-312-8171 and the appropriate personnel will be sent to
request that the solicitor leave.
Building Security: Visitors
If you are expecting a visitor after-hours, you need to inform them of the suite that you are in. There is an
electronic Directory located in the Lobby with the list of all tenants in the building.
Building Services: Cleaning
All office spaces and common areas are cleaned on a daily basis, Monday through Friday. Tenants should
contact the Management Office for any special cleaning needs, or to report any cleaning deficiencies.
In situations where a tenant would like a box of trash disposed of, please write “TRASH/ BASURA” on the
box. All empty moving boxes should be flattened.
All cleaning is to be performed after tenant working hours. Any daytime cleaning requirement will be at an
additional charge to tenant. The following schedule describes the level of services intended:

312-8163.
Monthly Parkers: Enter/exit the parking garage by swiping the digital pass to the reader at the gate.
Hourly and Daily Parkers: Must take a ticket at the gate prior to entering the garage. The parking ticket
must be validated at a Pay-On-Foot Machine (located by the P-1 elevator lobby) prior to walking back to
their vehicle. The validated ticket then must be inserted into the machine at the gated exit.
To register for carpool/vanpool parking, please review the Rideshare Parking Policy or contact the
management office.
Building Services: Directory Board & Signage
An effective directory & signage program with consistently applied standards tends to create the most
professional overall image for the building and its tenants. The Management Office will typically provide the
initial signage for the suite and directory. Any future changes to the tenant’s suite or directory sign will be
billed to the tenant’s account. A Directory Signage Request Form or a Suite Signage Request Form will
need to be filled out and faxed to the JBG Commercial Management Office at 571-312-8882.
The Signage form requests the tenant’s name and suite number, contact person and how they would like
the suite’s or individual(s) name to appear on their suite or directory strips.
All suite entry signage is building standard and consistent within the building. If a tenant requests additional
signage other than building standard, a written request must be submitted in advance to the Management
Office, and must be approved by the Landlord prior to any signage installation.
Building Services: Elevators
Vertical transportation consists of five (5) passenger elevators, two (2) garage elevators and one (1)
passenger/freight elevator. The passenger elevator cabs travel between levels Lobby – 10, while garage
cabs travel from P3-P1. The freight elevator travels from the Lobby – 10 th floor. The elevator system has
REM controllers (remote elevator monitoring) which allows for our elevator vendor to remotely monitor
safety and performance based on information for each elevator.
Building Services: Energy Conservation
Your company’s employees can help reduce operating costs and conserve energy by ensuring that lights,
office machines and coffee makers are turned off at the close of each work day. Further, remembering to
turn off lights in private offices when they are unattended for several minutes or more can practice
conservation. These simple ideas make sense - we all save money and our environment benefits as well.
Better Water
As with many large office buildings, it is always a good idea to allow water at the drinking fountains to flow
for a short period of time before drinking. You should find the water to be cooler (and healthier) if you purge
a small amount of water before you drink.
Building Services: Forms
For your convenience, we have included downloadable and printable PDF document forms that will expedite
various building management service requests. Hard copies of all forms are available from the Property
Management Office as well. To view and print PDF files, you need the Adobe Acrobat Reader software. If
not already installed on your computer, it can be obtained for free at www.adobe.com.

unable to log-on to Electronic Tenant Solutions Service Request System, please contact the Management
Office at 571-312-8171 at least 24 hours prior to the date the services are needed.
Building Services: Mail Service
Mail is delivered daily by a US Postal Service mail carrier. Outgoing mail may be deposited in the mailbox
located on the 1st floor of the building. Oversized and large quantity mailings should be taken to the Post
Office.
For best mail results, incoming mail should be formatted as follows:
*YOUR NAME*
*YOUR COMPANY*
800 North Glebe Road
Suite, ___
Arlington, VA 22203
Building Services: Maintenance Requests
For your convenience, 800 North Glebe Road has a web-based work order system called Electronic Tenant
Solutions Service Request System for all of your maintenance requests and repairs. In addition, you can
reach the management office at 571-312-8171. These requests should be made by the Facilities contact
person for your organization only. The following information will enhance timely response, and help establish
trend information useful in correcting recurring problems. Kindly provide:
1. Facility contact person’s name
2. Phone number
3. Floor/Area/Suite number
4. Relevant specifics applicable to the problem (i.e., too hot, too cold, area affected)
Please click here for the Electronic Tenant Solutions Service Request System
Building Services: Telecommunications
Locate System Within Leased Space
Each tenant’s phone system must be situated within its leased space, and NOT in the building’s core and
shell telephone or electrical rooms. This allows for ease of access as needed, and less chance for damage
to systems due to overheating situations. From a building manager’s perspective it alleviates much of the
overcrowding situations that would otherwise tend to occur in a core telephone closet. The telephone closets
are intended only to accept the main cable “feed” which extends from the building’s riser cables to your
system.
Code Issues: “Plenum Rated” Cable and Independent Supports For Cable
As with most other modern office buildings, the space above your ceiling is used as a return-air plenum.
Various code requirements affect plenum spaces. It is therefore essential that you instruct your cabling
company (phone, data and other) to use “plenum rated” cable for all cabling which will run above the ceiling.
The building code also requires that cables be independently supported, rather than sharing plumbing
supports or wires installed to hold ceiling systems or electrical conduits. Many cabling companies do not
abide by this requirement without specific instructions and follow-up by the tenant. Remedial work to correct
improper installation can be costly and have serious time delay considerations.
No Alternative Access Provider Without Landlord’s Approval
Technological advances in the area of telecommunications are having a profound impact on office buildings
throughout the country. Tenant’s demands for more sophisticated building provisions such as fiber optics
and competition among access providers have placed a greater burden on buildings to try to keep pace with
this modernizing industry. Most buildings are limited by the space available for competitive access providers
to establish a “minimum point of presence,” as well as the size of each floor’s telephone closet and shaft
space for riser cables. Other issues include access to equipment, safety and security.
Presently, it is important for all tenants to recognize that no alternative access provider may be permitted a
point of presence or riser cable space in the building without the Landlord’s prior written approval.
Emergency Procedures: Bomb Threat
Telephone Threat
When a bomb threat is made over the telephone, obtain the following information from the caller:
Exact location of the device.
Time set for explosion;
Description of the device;
Reason the caller has placed the bomb;
Exact words used by the caller.
Keep this information as confidential as possible.
Notify the Police Department. Call 911.
Notify the Management Office at 571-312-8171.
Once the Management Office has been notified of a bomb threat, it is our policy to advise your firm’s
manager or senior officer. It is up to the manager or senior officer to decide whether it is appropriate to
evacuate the office.
In the event that you are asked to evacuate the Building, please move away from the Building so as to allow
unfettered access to emergency personnel. Do not re-enter the Building until the Management Office, the
Police, or the Fire Department have given clearance.
Suspicious Packages or Mail Bombs
Letter bombs are usually sent through the mail addressed to a specific individual in the company, usually
disguised to look like some sort of gift or a small package. Letter bombs have the power to kill or seriously
maim anyone in close proximity. Letter bombs are usually contained within a large size manila envelope ¼”
to ½” thick and are fairly rigid.
However, the technology used in letter bombs has become increasingly sophisticated, and can be difficult to
detect visually. Letter bombs have been mailed from cities or small towns in the United States, as well as
from foreign countries. Be especially wary of letters that are mailed to titles -- Chairman, President,
Manager, Security Officer, etc. – rather than directly to named individuals.
If you suspect a parcel contains a letter bomb:
Clear everyone out of the immediate area; establish at least a 25 foot radius around the package.
Notify the police at 911 and Building Management.
DO NOT HANDLE IT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DEACTIVATE IT YOURSELF.
Emergency Procedures: Civil Disturbance
Should a riot or civil disturbance start outside the Building, the security guards will immediately lock all
entrances to the building. The police will be notified. We will keep you informed.
If a disturbance should occur in the main lobby, all elevators will be turned off at the first floor and the police
will be summoned.
Emergency Procedures: Earthquake
Earthquake Preparedness
Keep an earthquake preparedness kit on hand. Include the following:
Food and water – at minimum, a 3 day supply (a 7 day supply is ideal)
First Aid kit and First Aid manual
Large and small heavy-duty plastic bags, duct tape and scissors
Extra prescriptions and eyewear
Heavy-duty shoes and gloves
Extra clothing, and a whistle
Rescue tools
Portable TV and/or radio with extra batteries
Flashlights and extra batteries
Cash (ATMs and credit cards may not work)
Emergency Phone List, including family at work, school, daycare, etc.
Long-distance message check-in phone number
Cell phone
During an Earthquake
Most earthquake-induced injuries are caused by falling objects or debris that has become dislodged by the
quake. During an earthquake, please observe the following:
Remain calm, do not panic.
Stay in the office area.
Take cover under tables, desks, or strong doorways.
Keep away from windows and glass doors.
Keep clear of filing cabinets, shelves and tall stacks of materials.
Check for any injured personnel and administer first aid where necessary.
Floor Wardens should assess damage and injuries and be prepared to expedite evacuation of serious
cases.
In the event of a fire resulting from an earthquake, follow the fire emergency procedures.
Elevators are equipped with seismic detectors, which when activated, will automatically stop the
elevator at the nearest floor; if they are occupied at the time, inhabitants should exit immediately, and
follow instructions issued by the Floor Warden.
Following an Earthquake
Be prepared for aftershocks. While aftershocks are generally smaller than the earthquake that
generates them, they can cause additional damage.
If you smell gas, notify the Building Office or Security immediately.
Check immediate location – make sure you are safe.
Check for injuries and apply first aid as needed. Be prepared for an absence of immediate
emergency services, and be prepared to help yourself and others.
Extinguish any fires. Do not light matches. Do not smoke.
Listen for news or pertinent instructions on the radio or television.
Do not use the telephone unless you have a dire emergency; ensure that all telephone receivers are
properly mated to their cradles.
Conserve, and responsibly ration food and water.
Emergency Procedures: Elevator Malfunction
If you are in the elevator and it stops for no apparent reason, remember to remain calm. Pressing the
emergency button within the cab will alert Building Management that the elevator is malfunctioning. The cab
number will be identified, and so too, the specific floor on which it is stuck. The Guard will establish two-way
communication with elevators occupants until help has arrived.
In the event of a power outage, elevators will continue to operate using our emergency power generator.
Should an outage occur, elevator lights will remain on, but the car itself will temporarily cease moving. Each
elevator will automatically return to the lobby, their doors will open, and they will remain inoperable until the
power has been restored.
IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE, ELEVATORS MUST NOT BE USED FOR EVACUATION. USE THE
STAIRWELLS.

Important notes
If you call 911 as a result of a medical emergency, please be sure also to notify building management with
your name, callback number, and location so that security may swiftly guide the paramedics to your exact
location.
If the audible alarm within the building sounds, please do not call the Management Office, unless you have
something specific to report. Building Management is aware of the noise, as well as the source of the alarm,
whether it’s false or a legitimate emergency. Please keep the telephone lines clear so that Management
may to attend to the situation as quickly and efficiently as possible.
Emergency Procedures: Fire & Life Safety
Fire Prevention
Do not accumulate quantities of discarded files or other paper trash in your office or storage area. Pay
special attention to housekeeping in those departments that produce quantities of debris, such as
duplication machines, mailing and receiving rooms.
Do not store large quantities of flammable solvents, duplicating fluids, or other combustible fluids.
Keep electrical appliances in good repair. Report unsafe conditions to the Management Office.
When furnishing an office, consider the fire potential of materials used in large amounts, like overstuffed
chairs, settees, couches or anything that could become a combustible item. Such furnishings should be
flame-proofed.
Where potential for fire is especially high, such as supply rooms, tenants may wish to consider installing
additional fire extinguishers.
Fire Emergency
IF YOU DISCOVER A FIRE, you should remain calm and:
1. Pull the nearest fire alarm. Alarms are located in the corridors adjacent to the stairwells.
2. Call 911 from a safe location.
3. Evacuate or relocate and assist all others in the immediate area.
4. Close doors behind you to isolate fire.
5. Proceed to stairwells and listen for instructions. NEVER use the elevators.
6. Be cautious when opening doors so as not to spread the fire. Touch any door to see if it is hot before
opening.
7. If smoke is present, stay low and crawl with your body against the floor. The clearest air is near the
floor. If forced to make a dash through smoke or flame, hold your breath and cover your nose and
mouth with an article of clothing.
Emergency Procedures: Flooding
In the event of a flood that may cause damage to tenant property or affect the normal operation of the
building, designated tenant representatives will be contacted by Building Management personnel,
regardless of the time of day.
The first priority is to ensure that no personal injury occurs as the result of a flood. The second priority is to
discover the cause and prevent or minimize additional flooding.
Once the flooding has been contained, clean-up operations will be commenced. Tenants will need to
contact their insurance carrier for any damage to their property.
Emergency Procedures: Homeland Security
The JBG Companies recommends that each tenant have an emergency action plan in place to help their
employees prepare for, and react quickly to, a regional emergency, including terrorist attacks. Click on the

Emergency Procedures: Pandemic Preparedness
What you Need to Know
An influenza (flu) pandemic is a worldwide outbreak of flu disease that occurs when a new type of influenza
virus appears that people have not been exposed to before (or have not been exposed to in a long time).
The pandemic virus can cause serious illness because people do not have immunity to the new virus.
Pandemics are different from seasonal outbreaks of influenza that we see every year. Seasonal influenza is
caused by influenza virus types to which people have already been exposed. Its impact on society is less
severe than a pandemic, and influenza vaccines (flu shots and nasal-spray vaccine) are available to help
prevent widespread illness from seasonal flu.
Influenza pandemics are different from many of the other major public health and health care threats facing
our country and the world. A pandemic will last much longer than most flu outbreaks and may include
"waves" of influenza activity that last 6-8 weeks separated by months. The number of health care workers
and first responders able to work may be reduced. Public health officials will not know how severe a
pandemic will be until it begins.
Importance and Benefits of Being Prepared
The effects of a pandemic can be lessened if you prepare ahead of time. Preparing for a disaster will help
bring peace of mind and confidence to deal with a pandemic.
When a pandemic starts, everyone around the world could be at risk. The United States has been working
closely with other countries and the World Health Organization (WHO) to strengthen systems to detect
outbreaks of influenza that might cause a pandemic.
A pandemic would touch every aspect of society, so every part of society must begin to prepare. All have
roles in the event of a pandemic. Federal, state, tribal, and local governments are developing, improving,
and testing their plans for an influenza pandemic. Businesses, schools, universities, and other faith-based
and community organizations are also preparing plans.
As you begin your individual or family planning, you may want to review your state's planning efforts and
those of your local public health and emergency preparedness officials. State plans and other planning
information can be found at http://www.flu.gov/professional/checklists.html.
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and other federal agencies are providing funding,
advice, and other support to your state. The federal government will provide up-to-date information and
guidance to the public if an influenza pandemic unfolds.
Pandemic Flu Resources
There are many publicly available resources in place to help communities, companies, and individuals plan
for a possible pandemic flu outbreak. A few of the most useful sites are linked below:
Pandemicflu.gov
This is the official U.S. Government site for information on pandemic and avian influenza. The
material on this site is organized by topic for easy reference.
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
The CDC Web site is another primary source of information on pandemic influenza. They also have a
hotline—1-800-CDC-INFO (1-800-232-4636)—that is available in English and Spanish, 24 hours a
day, 7 days a week (TTY: 1-888-232-6348). Or, if you prefer, questions can be e-mailed to
[email protected].
Department of Homeland Security (DHS)
DHS is working on a “Business Planning Guide,” which will be posted on the DHS home page and on
Pandemicflu.gov as soon as it is completed. Also, for business-specific questions, the DHS has
created an e-mailbox— [email protected].
BOMA Resources
BOMA/Greater Toronto Pandemic Flu Report
The report addresses the threat to commercial buildings from an avian flu pandemic.
The resources above will provide a lot of information, but we also encourage you to:
Listen to local and national radio
Watch news reports on television
Read your newspaper and other sources of printed and Web-based information
Look for information on your local and state government Web sites
Consider talking to your local health care providers and public health officials.
Emergency Procedures: Power Failure
All JBG Office Buildings and Common areas are served by emergency generators. In the event of power
failure, these generators will provide emergency power for certain basic building functions. Those functions
include:

Emergency Procedures: Severe Weather
When severe weather conditions become apparent, the U.S. Weather Bureau describes conditions by two
(2) classifications, a Watch or a Warning. This applies to the reporting of severe thunderstorms, the
approach of weather conditions favoring the formation of tornadoes, a hurricane condition, a winter storm
condition, etc. A Watch becomes effective when atmospheric conditions are present that can produce the
particular weather phenomenon. A Warning means that the weather condition has been spotted and prompt
action must be taken to enhance safety.
Except in very rare circumstances, the decision to evacuate the building based on the above weather
reports will not be made by Building Management, but rather by each Tenant Company. However, in the
event these conditions do exist, the following guidelines should adhered to:
Move away from outside windows. If the windows in your offices are supplied with blinds, close the
blinds (this will provide protection from broken glass).
Do not panic.
If evacuated, lock all desk drawers and take all items of value with you.
If evacuated, use a route that is in the building interior and stay away from large expanses of glass
and windows.
Use the stairwells rather than the elevators.
If evacuated, do not return to your office until advised to do so.
Emergency Procedures: Tenant Training
The JBG Companies would like to present our tenants with the Floor Warden Training video. The safety and
security of our tenants is of the highest priority. This video generally reviews safety while in your building
and specifically the key roles Wardens will play in responding to both fire and non-fire emergencies. The
video is broken down into 3 sections.
1. Systems: Know your buildings systems
2. Team: Building staff management and floor warden teams
3. Procedures: Fire, earthquake, medical etc.
Please take time to watch the video and familiarize yourself with the emergency procedures outlined. If you
have any questions please direct them towards your Property Manager.
The JBG Companies
Emergency Procedures: Toxic Hazard
If there is a toxic spill or exposure, proceed immediately to an area where you are no longer exposed. Call
911. Provide the building’s address, your floor and phone number, and also what type of spill has occurred.
Take appropriate action to contain the hazard; close doors behind you, and always follow all safety
procedures when working with toxic materials.

Policies and Procedures: Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA)
The JBG Companies strives to maintain ADA building compliance at 800 North Glebe Road. Compliance
will be ongoing based on new regulations, priorities and budgetary allowances. Tenants are reminded that
they are responsible for ADA compliance within their premises.
In the interest of meeting the intent of the ADA, all tenants are advised of the following four policies
designed to make 800 North Glebe Road as accessible and safe as possible where the property may not
physically be in compliance with the ADA:
ADA Policy #1: General
800 North Glebe Road Building Management continues to evaluate the building with respect to the
Americans with Disabilities Act, and take measures to be in compliance.
In addition to that action being taken, it is policy at this property that the building’s staff will assist disabled
individuals as reasonably needed in the building’s public areas. Such assistance is to be provided upon
request, or where observed to be needed by building staff.
ADA Policy #2: Rescue Assistance
Out of concern for life safety, 800 North Glebe Road Building tenants must notify Building Management of
any and all physically challenged persons using the tenant’s premises. Notification must include the nature
of the disability and the normal location (floor and general area) of each individual.
As changes occur (e.g. in the event that the individual’s office is reassigned or use of the premises is
terminated, or a new physically challenged person begins to use the premises) Building Management must
be notified accordingly.
Strict adherence to this policy will help enhance proper, timely and efficient rescue assistance in the event of
an emergency. Without proper adherence, a disabled individual could be placed at significantly higher risk
with respect to life safety.
ADA Policy #3: Rescue Assistance Education
To be safely prepared for a building emergency (e.g. fire, tornado, etc.), physically challenged individuals
must receive special advance education/training. The nature of a person’s specific disability is likely to
dictate a particular response based on the physical nuances of 800 North Glebe Road and its emergency
reaction plan. It is each tenant’s responsibility to ensure that their employees, both the physically challenged
and those who may assist the physically challenged, are properly educated in this regard.
Concerned tenants should contact 800 North Glebe Road Building Management to request help with rescue
assistance education. Tenants are responsible for ensuring that this education is reviewed periodically, and
are welcome to request Building Management’s assistance in this regard. This policy applies to physically
challenged employees within the tenant office space, as well as physically challenged visitors.
ADA Policy #4: Elevator Access
In order to meet the intent of the ADA, it is policy at 800 North Glebe Road that the building’s staff will assist
physically challenged persons where they are restricted by elevator accessibility. Such assistance is to be
provided upon request or where observed to be needed by building staff.
Policies and Procedures: Animal Admittance
Animals are not permitted inside 800 North Glebe Road; with the exception of service animals providing
assistance to physically challenged persons.
Policies and Procedures: Building Rules and Regulations

Any and all damage to the building, including lobbies, hallways, elevator, loading areas, and grounds,
which is caused by the tenant, moving company or its employees or agents will be the responsibility
of tenant. The Landlord will perform required repairs and all costs associated with such repair will be
billed to the tenant for reimbursement.

Policies and Procedures: Regulatory Conformance
It is in the best interest of the building and its tenants that all federal, state and local regulations governing
800 North Glebe Road are in practice at this property. Compliance with building codes, fire codes, health
codes and other ordinances often seems too inconvenient, difficult or costly, but in fact is essential for life
safety and well-being. 800 North Glebe Road is operated so as to abide with regulations to the best of
Building Management’s knowledge, and it is important that each tenant acts in the same fashion to avoid
jeopardizing the safety of the other tenants.
The "18-Inch Rule"
The "18 inch rule" is commonly overlooked in office buildings. In order for fire detection and suppression
systems to perform properly, nothing may be placed within 18 inches of the ceiling. This typically involves
items stored on high shelving. Please monitor this carefully so as to prevent this occurrence in your
premises.
This regulatory issue (and many others as well) is inherently relevant to your safe occupancy in this
building. Please call Building Management if you have questions in this regard.
Policies and Procedures: Remodeling Procedures
Before Construction:
Remodeling/redecorating work can be either minor or major, and may include any of the following:
Installing electrical or phone outlets
Installing or relocating light fixtures
Relocating doors
Repairing carpets
Installing new carpet
Adding or moving walls
Painting or wallcovering
Telephone or computer system cabling
As your office contemplates remodeling work for your suite at 800 North Glebe Road, several factors
involving the Landlord’s interface should be considered.
The Landlord must evaluate even the smallest change for its impact on the building. Written design approval
by Building Management is required prior to the commencement of work. For most projects this can be
accomplished in five (5) business days or less.
Be sure to provide two (2) copies of all applicable plans and specifications, so that we can return one copy
to you with our comments, and keep one copy for our files. The Landlord’s review helps ensure that the
proposed project will conform to the building’s core and shell systems, as well as the standard construction
practices and appropriate materials for the building.
The scope of various projects will require that the Tenant engage a licensed architect and/or engineer.
Check with Building Management to discuss our requirements in a specific instance.
Landlord reserves the right to withhold the approval of any contractor who cannot provide insurance
coverage; is not licensed; or has previously caused problems.
During Construction:
The Landlord will require that all work that takes place comply with all governmental authorities with
jurisdiction over the project. It tends to simplify matters if contractors are selected from a Management’s
Approved Contractor List, though the tenant may still go through whatever process it feels necessary to
ensure that the contractor is qualified for the work.
No contractor will be allowed to begin work until a Certificate of Insurance naming the additional insureds
has been received by the Management Office, and contractor has returned a signed copy of the back page
of the Contractor Rules and Regulations acknowledging that it has read and agrees to all terms and
conditions.
Please reference the Contractor Rules and Regulations manual.
A pre-construction meeting with the Contractor, Tenant, Property Manager, and Lead Engineer is strongly
encouraged to ensure all parties are clear on the work to be performed and fully understand the rules and
regulations.
No loud noise is to take place during normal business hours, from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm, Monday through
Friday. If a construction project is deemed to be disruptive to existing tenants and/or the Landlord, the
General Contractor shall reschedule work so as to eliminate disruption to the satisfaction of Landlord at no
additional cost to the Landlord.
After Construction:
Upon completion of the work, and depending on the nature of the project, the contractor must be required to
furnish certain items to the Landlord to assist with the Landlord’s future maintenance of the suite; to help
prove that the work was completed satisfactorily and to demonstrate that the property will remain free of
liens. We suggest that final payment be withheld from the contractor until the applicable project close-out
items have been obtained from the contractor and forwarded to the Landlord to ensure suitability (not all of
these will be required for many small projects - ask Building Management).
1. Final Inspection Approval Certificate and Certificate of Occupancy from Arlington County Government.
1. Final Inspection Approval Certificate and Certificate of Occupancy from Arlington County Government.
2. As-built drawings depicting accurate field conditions in areas affected by the work.
3. Updated electrical panel schedules.
4. Lien releases from the General Contractor, subcontractors and suppliers.
5. Operating and Maintenance (O&M) Manuals.
6. HVAC Test & Balance Reports.
7. Written one (1) year warranty on all completed work and installed equipment.
Floor Load:
Code requirements restrict placing loads upon floors that exceed the load per square foot for which the floor
was designed. The floor load for 800 N. Glebe Road is 80 pounds per square foot for live loads and 20
pounds per square foot partition load. Should you find it necessary to utilize equipment that exceeds this
rating, you must receive prior written approval from Building Management. The Landlord’s structural
engineer shall review documentation provided by the tenant, and shall have the right to prescribe the
weight, size and position of all equipment, materials, furniture or other property brought into the Building.
Tenants will be invoiced for the structural engineer’s services. Heavy objects shall stand on such platforms
as determined by Landlord to be necessary to properly distribute weight.
Floor Covering:
All floor coverings should be approved through Building Management.
Electrical Requirements:
Prior to any alterations of electrical wiring, specifications must be submitted to Building Management, for
review and approval by the building electrician to avoid any code violations.
Window Covering:
800 North Glebe Road is equipped with building standard blinds in all office suites. While blinds are
provided initially to all tenants, repair or replacement of blinds is provided through Building Management at
an additional charge. The blinds serve an insulating function both in the retention of heat in the winter
months, and the exclusion of heat in the summer months. We recommend blinds be kept drawn at all times.
Policies and Procedures: Season Decorations
Holiday decorations (including trees and wreaths) set up in any tenant space or lobby shall be in
conformance with the following specifications:
For safety purposes, only artificial trees may be displayed in 800 North Glebe Road
Artificial trees shall not be set up before December 1st, and must be removed by January 2nd or the
first business day after the holiday.
Trees must be placed so they do not in any way block an exit door, nor obscure an exit sign.
Only decorations of non-flammable material are to be used.
Electrical wiring shall NOT be used on metallic Christmas trees. Metallic trees may be illuminated by
use of spotlights placed a safe distance away.
Any electric lights used on trees must conform to electric code and be U.L. approved.
All artificial trees must be flame-proofed to the satisfaction of the Arlington County Fire Marshall.
Use of any candle or flame decorations is prohibited.
Policies and Procedures: Smoking
All public aspects of 800 North Glebe Road or within twenty-five (25) feet of the Building, or in tenant’s
premises have been declared “Non-Smoking Areas.” This includes restrooms, stairways, loading dock,
corridors, lobbies, and elevators, etc. We ask all smokers’ cooperation in properly disposing of cigarettes
and related trash in trash receptacles and not on the sidewalk, parking lot for grass. This will help Building
Management maintain the cleanliness of the exterior of the property, and make for more pleasant
surroundings for everyone.
Tenants’ assistance in self-enforcing this policy is important in order for meaningful regulation. This sort of
arrangement is generally consistent with the other first class office buildings in the Washington, DC area.
